SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On December 16, 2009, the Consolidated 
Appropriations Act, 2010 (Consolidated Appropriations Act), Public Law

annual inventory of service contracts awarded or extended through the 
exercise of an option on or after April 1, 2010, and describes the 
contents of the inventory. The contents of the inventory must include:
    (A) A description of the services purchased by the executive agency 
and the role the services played in achieving agency objectives, 
regardless of whether such a purchase was made through a contract or 
task order;
    (B) The organizational component of the executive agency 
administering the contract, and the organizational component of the

    (D) The total dollar amount invoiced for services under the

    (E) The contract type and date of award;

Act. Section 743(c) of the Consolidated Appropriations Act requires 
agencies to ``publish in the Federal Register a notice that the 
inventory is available to the public.''
    Consequently, through this notice, we are announcing that OSC's 
service contract inventory for FY 2014 is available to the public. The 
inventory provides information on service contract actions over $25,000 
that OSC made in FY 2014. OSC's finance section has posted its
